I'm guessing Clive Barker doesn't have a hand in this, but it's from Saber so could end up good.

I'm sure he didn't write it, but at least he was somewhat involved!

Speaking of the story, we have been greatly privileged to consult with Clive Barker himself to make sure this new chapter in the Hellraiser storyline is authentic to the vision of his iconic Hellraiser films.

Announcing Clive Barker’s Hellraiser: Revival – horror that doesn’t hold back

A survival horror experience ripped straight from the bowels of oblivion.

He's been a lot more involved with the franchise since he got the rights back. He was involved in the 2022 remake too, and was producing a tv show too, and it seems he's got a hand on this in some way.

 

[spookyfish]

Yeah, he won the rights back, so he's "involved" in anything Hellraiser now. I'm glad for that.

Fucking FINALLY!

Oh man, this is going to get so butchered by Sony's censorship.

Oh man, this is going to get so butchered by Sony's censorship.

They'd have to censor the whole game, then. Doubtful.

 

[FinalBossWithTheMostPower]

Weird. Looks good?

They'd have to censor the whole game, then. Doubtful.

Well they did censor Martha is Dead up to a point that releasing it on PS consoles didn't make much sense. Kinda reminds me of that Netflix show that deleted a suicide that was pivotal to the whole story.

Never seen any of the films, but seems interesting. And gruesome.

Never seen any of the films, but seems interesting. And gruesome.

I'd highly recommend the first 2 films.

The first was directed by the author of the book, and he wrote the story for the second one as well, which was a direct continuation and expands on the lore.

Looks like the game is heavily inspired by the second movie too.

fuck that. what if the game unlocks their dimension

 

[Havoc2049]

Looks like a trip! I'm in!

 

[Mister Wolf]

fuck that. what if the game unlocks their dimension

Well, you'll learn a lot...........about pain.

 

[Laptop1991]

That looks pretty good, i'll wait for the whole game, but i would play it from what i've just watched.

 

[MacReady13]

The original Hellraiser is one of my fav films of all time! I truly hope this one lives up to expectations but I am VERY excited for this!

 

[Jesb]

Looked pretty good. Horror is my favourite genre let's keep them coming.

 

[Arsic]

Never watched the movies so there's no hype for me. I love horror games but until I see the gameplay loop this is just shock value without substance.

 

[DavidGzz]

Video is NSFW for those that care.
Still not sure how this game will work within the premise of Hellraiser, which is not really an action franchise. Guess you will be battling through the Hellraiser dimension?
Visuals do look suitably disturbing - hope they can pull it off.

Yeah dude, I hovered over it with an intern standing behind me thankfully and saw the bits.

 

[Lunarorbit]

Whoa. I wish I was a bigger hellraiser fan cause that looks crazy on a great way. Loved the last movie on Hulu but re and silent hill are as far as I can go with the scary in video games!

 

[DavidGzz]

Ok, intern left. This looks awesome. The more the merrier when it comes to this genre!
